Downtown Los Angeles is getting better and better for bicycling. In addition to the recently implemented 7th St. bike lanes, we’re happy to announce that new lanes are being installed on 2nd St., this weekend. Work crews have already begun the process of removing the existing striping from the street. The next step will include installing new thermoplastic striping atop the mark out paint seen in the photos above and below. The new bicycle lanes will feature buffers (from Broadway to Figueroa) and will be installed from North Spring Street through the 2nd St. tunnel (which we know many are very excited about!) through to Glendale Blvd.

The faint mark out lines will be followed soon by thermoplastic striping.

This project links up with an existing sharrowed route along 2nd street from Alameda to the 2nd/ N. Spring St. intersection and existing bicycle lanes on Spring St. and Figueroa St.
